dose of murder, a pocketful of diamonds, and a handful of Russian
mobsters...And you’ve got yourself some SCOTTSDALE HEAT .

Book 2: In this thrilling romantic mystery, Laura Black is an investigator for
the highly successful but slightly shady Scottsdale lawyer, Lenny
Shapiro. This time, she’s tracking down a wealthy Scottsdale cougar
named Jacky Wade, who’s been missing for a week and her clueless
boyfriend, Terry Lennox, is getting desperate. But even after Laura
manages to find Jacky, it seems that the trouble is only beginning.
First is the death threat. Next there’s the murder. Finally there’s the
kidnapping. Laura’s best friend Sophie and fellow investigator Gina
Rondinelli help with the hunt while Laura enlists a group of man-hungry
cougars to search the nightclubs of Scottsdale. Unfortunately, this all
leads Laura into the arms of Carlos the Butcher, a guy with some serious
anger issues.

If this wasn’t enough to keep her busy, Laura’s
next door neighbor, Grandma Peckham, is on the prowl for a new boyfriend
and she’s in serious need of Laura’s dating advice. All of this might
even be manageable if it wasn’t for the fact that Laura is also trying
to start a real relationship with plainclothes cop Jack Reno. The only
problem there is that she is also having romantic thoughts about the
gorgeous and dangerous crime lieutenant, Maximilian.

USA Today bestselliing author Patricia Kay delivers a sexy romance that
is lighthearted but still contains the emotional punch her readers have
come to expect.

Playwright Alex Summerfield can't wait to get
away from New York City. From his devastating divorce to a difficult
bout of writer's block, his problems have made his life miserable. A
working vacation in the quiet town of Juliette, New York is just the
thing to get him back on track. The last thing he needs is to get
stopped for speeding. And it certainly doesn't help that the cop who
stops him is a sexy, blue-eyed vixen who just happens to be the sheriff
of Juliette.

Sheriff Veronica Valentine has heard of Alex
Summerfield -- of course, she has. She's even seen a few of his shows,
but she had no idea he was a tall, dark-haired, gorgeous hunk. When his
gray eyes pin hers as he argues about the speeding ticket she's writing,
she knows he's trouble. And when she discovers he's the person who's
rented the carriage house at the back of the property where she lives,
she is very much afraid trouble has just landed at her back door.

As
the summer days begin to heat up, so does the attraction between Ronnie
and Alex. And even as Ronnie encourages his progress on the new play,
she tries to ignore the desire that swells whenever he's near. All too
soon, she knows, the season will end, and Alex will return to the city,
leaving her with a broken heart and only the memory of a scorching
summer passion.

The death of her beloved father changes Laura Elliott’s life
irrevocably. The spirited young American has barely begun to recover
from her loss when her mother remarries – to a British earl. The two of
them are whisked across the Atlantic to the green expanses of Coventry,
where Laura finds herself adrift in high society, unable to fit in and
lonelier than she’s ever been. Then, two new people enter her life and
turn her world on its ear. Her stepfather’s new accountant, the handsome
and accomplished Graham, shows her the kindness she has been missing
since arriving in England. But Sarah Byrne, a modern young woman from
the toughest part of Birmingham and youngest sister of its notorious
crime family, has intentions of pulling Laura in an entirely different
direction. As Laura manages her new friendships, she finds herself faced
with the questions that plague twenty-year-olds in every era: who she
is, what home means to her, and what the consequences of her choices
will be.

Abigail Stuart is a freelance photographer
who’s trying to hunt down the elusive tycoon, Kurt Halden, who suddenly
disappeared without a trace. She has information about his dead fiancée
that will bring him vindication from the past. When she meets him in his
reclusive cabin in Alaska, she expects to encounter an aggressive,
arrogant business genius. Instead, she finds a ruggedly sexy, sincere
man that might steal her heart, if her career wasn’t standing in the
way.

Kurt Halden despises reporters for the way they treated him
when his fiancée died and he was accused of embezzling one billion
dollars. To escape the harassment he moved to a beautiful yet desolate
hideaway in Alaska. In four years he’s encountered only two people until
he has to pull Abigail Stuart from her crashed plane. He doesn’t trust
her, yet he’s forced to live with her until a rescue plane arrives to
retrieve her. He tries to keep his guard up and hold tight to his
secrets, but he’s finding it impossible not to fall in love with his
uninvited guest. When she goes, she’ll take his heart with her. But will
she hate him for the mistakes he’s made?

Widowed, Grace Templeton,
thought the child she'd been carrying for seven months was the child of
her dead husband, and Jack Hansen thought the sperm he'd donated had
gone to the wife of his sterile twin—until they learn two vials at the
fertility clinic had been accidentally switched. The shock sends Grace
into early labor and the only place she can have complete bed rest is at
the working guest ranch owned by the stranger who's now the father of
her unborn child, and that stranger's about to turn her life upside
down.

Rarely do we live the life we
originally intended. We make up our minds and charge down the path we’ve
chosen, only to find ourselves arriving at an unexpected destination.
We don’t know how it happens, but after enough time has passed, we’re
able to look back and assemble the puzzle pieces to make sense of it
all.

This is the business of Joseph A. Garofalo’s
autobiography, except his life’s puzzle pieces are not made up only of
choices and events. They also predominately take the form of people. His
story introduces the many relationships that make up who he is
today—those who influenced him, the woman he married, the friends he
made, his coworkers and bosses, his clients, and eventually, the
partners he selected for his law firm.

His story that
begins in a working-class Chicago neighborhood and ends with cofounding
his own firm, as well as owning a California vineyard, is an
inspirational journey of self-discovery that will draw out readers’
introspection and appreciation. Because it is more than a story. It is a
series of life lessons that can only be expressed in this way by one
who’s learned them himself.

"Miss Mai" is a romantic memoir set in the final years of the Vietnam
War. The author's progress as a naive draftee through the rigors of
military training as an intelligence analyst inexorably lead him to the
exotic streets of wartime Saigon. He meets Tuoi Mai under accidental
circumstances and his life is altered forever after.

The War Between the States had dragged on far too long, leaving behind a welter of broken bodies and broken men.

One
of these is James Yancey, Lt. Colonel, CSA. Captured by the Union Army
after the Battle of the Wilderness, he was sent to the officers’ prison
camp at Johnson’s Island in Sandusky Bay, Ohio. Having been forced to
abandon his men is a tribulation that eats at him; that does, in fact,
color his whole existence with self-blame. Even after he is released, at
war’s end, James is haunted by memories of what he considers his own
disgrace.

With the South going through Reconstruction, his best
option seems to be a move west, to join his two brothers already
situated in California. During a brief stop in Charleston, his former
home, he locates a girl from childhood plantation days, Emma Palmer, and
seeks her hand in marriage . . .

"A voice filled with sincerity, salvation, and splendor. A voice as stark, unforgiving, and mesmerizing as blood backing into the needle." ~ J.A. Kazimer, The Ampersand Review

From the cow fields of Connecticut to the streets of San Francisco, Joe Clifford’s Junkie Love traverses the lost highways of America, down the rocky roads of mental illness to the dead ends of addiction. Based on Clifford’s own harrowing experience with drugs as a rock ’n’ roll wannabe in the 1990s, the book draws on the best of Kerouac & the Beats, injecting a heavy dose of pulp fiction as it threads a rollicking narrative through a doomed love triangle, lit up by the many strange characters he meets along the way. Part road story, part resurrection tale, Junkie Love finds a way to laugh in one’s darkest hour, while never abandoning its heart in search of a home.

Junkie Love by Joe Clifford is an original ride through the down-and-dirty underside of the drug and music scene, inspired and propelled by Jack Kerouac’s youthful dreams of an American nirvana, translated to a later, darker generation. Clifford is its passionate spokesman.

Gaston battled for duty and honor—until his new wife tempted him to fight for her love.

Gaston
has had his fill of war and the Latin Kingdoms when he learns that he
has inherited his father’s estate in France. He accepts one last quest
for the Templars, the order he has served for fifteen years, and agrees
to deliver a package to Paris on his way home. A practical man, Gaston
knows he now has need of a wife and an heir, so when a lovely widowed
noblewoman on pilgrimage catches his eye, he believes he can see matters
solved to their mutual convenience.

But Ysmaine is more than a
pilgrim enduring bad luck. She has buried two husbands in rapid
succession, both of whom died on her nuptial night, and believes herself
cursed. Accepting the offer of this gruff knight seems doomed to result
in his demise, but Gaston is dismissive of her warnings and Ysmaine
finds herself quickly wed again—this time to a man who is not only
vital, but determined to remain alive.

Neither of them realize
that Gaston’s errand is one of peril, for the package contains the
treasure of the Templars—and some soul, either in their party or
pursuing it, is intent upon claiming the prize for his or her own,
regardless of the cost. In a company of strangers with secrets, do they
dare to trust each other and the love that dawns between them?

He curled their values in his fist and tossed them away. They didn't
know what it was like to be him, to be forever sealed into a living tomb
of his own making, to have here for a few days the most beautiful woman
who would give him the solace he craved. They didn't know what it'd be
like to be held, to caress and embrace, and finally feel the freedom of
it.

They were wrong. Their God, their beliefs, didn't take any of that into account.

Niccolo
Cavatelli, famous cellist, lives in a world filled with music. Yet the
notes he hears day and night bring him no closer to the security he
craves. Instead, they isolate and seclude him.

Then Kati Dennis
enters his life. Swept along by their mutual attraction, he writes his
greatest song ever. One which, in one tragic moment, might just silence
the music for both of them. Forever.

she has to meet people if she ever wants to find love. The problem?

any kind of social life when she has to worry about hiding her growing
bald spot?

Josh Harrter is the acknowledged cool kid of the

includes video clips from The Simpsons in his lesson plans. He is drawn
to the pretty new music teacher singing and skipping her way through
the halls, but he can sense she's hiding something beneath her sunny
smiles. How can a guy falling for a girl convince her to trust him with
her deepest secret?

Swimming
with dolphins is said to be the number one thing to do before you die.
For 12-year-old Michael, it very nearly is. A secret boat trip has gone
tragically wrong, and now he lies unconscious in hospital.

But
when Michael finally wakes up, he seems different. His step sister Bibi
is soon convinced that he is not who he appears to be. Meanwhile, in the
ocean beyond Bermuda’s reefs, a group of bottlenose dolphins are

Bermuda is a place of mysteries. Some
believe its seas are enchanted, and the sun-drenched islands conceal a
darker past, haunted with tales of lost ships. Now Bibi and Michael are
finding themselves in the most extraordinary tale of all.

Retired businessman Worthy McGuire knows he cannot put it off any
longer. Time is not on the side of the gruff World War II veteran racing
to fulfill a promise he made amid the horrors of the D-Day invasion in
Normandy. As he plans a pilgrimage from Michigan to the site of both his
best and worst day, Worthy now must rely on those he trusts the
least—his family.

With no one else to help him meet the physical
demands of the trip, Worthy grudgingly includes his grandchildren, David
and Shannon, who are each battling their own insecurities. His
controlling son, Ted, and his manipulative daughter-in-law, Angela,
follow Worthy and his grandkids to France, and they have one goal: to
drag the aging war vet back to Michigan where they hope to take command
of his finances and place him in a nursing home. As Worthy searches for a
family from his past, only time will tell if he can patch the crumbling
relationships with his family before it is too late.

In this
historical tale, a World War II veteran takes a journey of honor and
courage as he sets off to complete the most important mission of his
long life.

upcoming marriage to her childhood sweetheart has all the makings of a
fairytale, but a fated discovery just days before the wedding threatens
to leave no one in her family unscathed--including her doting adoptive
uncle. Ruby's mother, Ainsley, has only hours to tell Ruby the real
story of their lives, beginning 24 years earlier with her own troubled
marriage and a chance encounter destined to follow her for the rest of
her life. Once Ainsley’s painful revelation is complete, Ruby must
decide if she can go through with her wedding, forgive her mother, and
preserve her disabled father’s life-altering belief that their family
tree really is as it seems. The power and burden of knowledge has passed
from mother to daughter, and now her family's future rests in Ruby's

together, or tear it apart?

three generations of independent, charismatic women navigating through
love, tragedy and reconciliation, MEN AMONG SIRENS takes place over four
days, yet carries the reader on a 20-year journey from the Navy hub of
Virginia's southern coast to the formidable, rustically beautiful
wilderness of Michigan's upper peninsula, whose people and lifestyle
remain a step removed from the high-tech, breakneck-paced lives most of
